Nice weekend run, New Haven, CT to ATL. Stopped at home Friday night, visited my brother near DC Sat nite, then came down yesterday. Now to the Pilot nearby for a shower :)
Without a load back? Ixnay!
88cpm would be, um, tolerable, if there were an equally-paying return run. Even so, welcome to life in the slow lane. My van can make it work at 60, but there would be no pounding north at 70, for sure not!
I don't live in a big city anymore either, but if I hafta get my kiddo out of harm's way, then off to the 'burgh I go.
Sure am glad NYC is in my past!!
You, sir, rock! I appreciate the offer.
I am leaving MI for Pittsburgh at 1700. My little one is there (daughter, 21), so if the SHTF, Daddy will have her back.
What about those states that won't issue a CDL-C without endorsements (haz or pass)? Does that make things more difficult?
FWIW, PA does issue naked class C's, ie without endorsements.
Then git'r done. Also stop by the DMV for a CDL learner's manual.
Come to think of it, you're with Tri State? You should already have a medical card. One step already done. Get that CDL, get out of that van and into a bigger truck. One less van for me to compete against, and you will earn more...
Kinda crippled myself. Should be able to get out of Detroit, but I can only go back towards home because I am so broke. That's what I get for wasting my money on extravagances like brakes, and tires with real tread :(
